When the Lord tells us not to worry or be anxious, he is not telling us to live as dead fish.  Our body has adrenaline for a reason.  There is nothing sinful about the quickening of a mind.  And the protection of our skin is often necessary to perform the tasks we are asked to do.

But adrenaline has a temporary use.  It is not wise to tap into it continually.  Rest and sleep are also functions of our body.

To push our minds to the very edge of sanity is not wise either.  Functionality and creativity are stifled when we work too hard.

Protect your body as is necessary.  But let us remember to leave room for faith.

Above all trust the Lord.  Live your life with joy.  He has promised to take care of you.  And we believe he cannot lie.

By His Grace
